It is important to contact your insurance carrier to determine your benefits. Patients should familiarize themselves with the coverage on their plan (exams, prophies, flouride, restorations, crowns, etc). Ultimately, patients have the responsibility to know their plan’s coverage.

We specifically encourage patients to check on two common areas of potential conflict. First, note when the new year begins for your coverage plan, a new year of benefits does not necessarily begin with January 1st, it instead will depend on when your plan was initiated by your company. Additionally, policies tend to cover either 2 prophy (cleaning) appointments per year or one every 6 months. In the case of one every 6 months, scheduling is very important so that the patient receives the maximum coverage.

For your convenience Dr. Beck offers CareCredit as an option when a payment plan is needed. We ask that you pay for any portion of services which your insurance plan does not cover at the time of your appointment.
